Re: Another AL7 seat thread
Love the seat much better than the OEM one.

Re: Another AL7 seat thread
For me, the tuck and roll seat is by far the best looking seat out there. There are probably more comfortable options but none I've see look right on the bike. I'm not a fan of the lighter colour to the rear of the tuck and roll seat but that's not a problem to take care of. The angle of this seat for me is right and makes the seat many times more comfortable than the stock seat and the extra few mill padding helps, too. The Corbins are undoubtledly more comfy for larger people. For me at 5'10" and 77 kilos the tuck and roll is plenty comfortable while still retaining the right dynamics for the bike. The Corbins remind me of those gel add on seats that people stick on racing bicycle saddles.

Re: Another AL7 seat thread
I have a comfort seat (I'd assumed it was official, maybe it isn't) that was on another AL7 at the dealer and I asked for it to be put on the one I was getting after a test ride on the stock one. It doesn't look like the one in your pictures though, it is more of a mesh look. Still uncomfortable. Still tricky to put the seat back on (I keep a disc lock under there so have to do it all the time).
